Mm'RIfi T RKCEIVKD. from a reader of this A column, who lives In Hutledge. a letter, which Is interesting te answer: "Dear Madam May I ask te have social service work defined and its possibilities as a means of livelihood explained? And hew may I apply? "i'eurs truly." etc. The letter made me wonder if much has been said nbeut social service work and workers in thU column, and If se, whether 1 had seemed for or against tln profession. I am really for social lerslce work, but I Unci myself continually critical of the social service workers In my mind, though 1 hope that fact docs net reverberate through the column. Perhaps for that leasen I am net it feed person te define the work or the workers, but I should say that social service work was philanthropic work done by professional and generally by employed workers, nnd that a social service worker was one who had received a mere or less scientific train ing for benevolent work. As te the chances of earning; a livelihood, I "heuld say that they were multiplying jearly, nnd that salaries of from $800 te s-eOO. nnd, In some) eases, living quarters and even meals, were offered with ether per tiiiltf thut spelled considerable influence nnd ecn power ever the affairs of men nnd women nnd children, net te say beards of managers and executive committees. tcl''v ea however, the training of a e Is! service worker grows mere formidable. "Y"KAI18 age in Chicago the evangelist. - iMvlght I.. Meed), established the first school of training for religlmiH social service workers, and he astonished the pastera and IJercus Societies and Ladles' Aids exceed ingly by having tabulated methods by which one or another set of derelicts was con certed nnd put en the Mralght path. Frem that school the name Christian worker ivum I mere or less derived, and for some time it n'lircscnieu n certain t)pe net always a popular one with the rank nnd rile of church members. Soen after tbat there came into existence eclal Mttlemcnts. generally in the sluma or In a peer neighborhood or. at all events, in a -neighborhood of workers In industry: setllciiieiitM where men and women llvcirand did philanthropic work under the direction of a settlement head and according te method, outlined and generally taught bv that head. These persons were known as settlement workers, and they did everything, from washing e baby te staging a play. In the wake of the slum or settlement worker came the Yeung Women's Christian Association trained worker, who was gener ally known as a V. W. C. A. secretary. Hhc received her training in the big Y. W. t . A. school In New Yerk City under the supervision of no less u person than Miss Urace Dedge and teachers of her choice. Hie secretaries were classified and trained for various jobs under industrial, rural, eltv. institutional, religious, recreational nnd ad iiilni"trntive. TTNTIT the V. W. C. A. took the matter - iu hand the salaries of these workers among women were part-time stipends nnd very meager at that. The Y. W. C. A. raised tlie etandard of efficiency and also of pay. It also gave the salaried trained worker en equal position with the volun teer en beards and n slight!., superior posi tion in actual administrative work, because knowing the work b. a dallv and even hourly contact with it ihe) weie net enlv better informed than the volunteer", but they were mere efficient. Frem such organizations as the Y. W. C. A. the iden of having trained wetkers spread fe clinrlt) organizations, hospitals, nur MTic. educational Institutions, of u benevo lent sort and finally te business establish -incuts and fc dories, until new no up-le-date institution that Is organized for the help of person", spiritual.) . luenially ,,. physically, but ini Judcs a social service department with n staff of trained nnd paid medal set vice worker". And nearly ever) citv of nnv sl.e lias new at least one unci probably a number of schools for the training of these winkers. 1 lie- courses yar) according te the-tvpc of work required, nud the amount of practice included dlfteiH with the different school" In some actual residence with work In a social ..ettleiiient is part of th mise- in ethers some hospital work; in still otleu-s -i very then nu;,h unire in ps.wholegy ami even psychiatry.
